INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR RD-323MS
１．Description
Custom LSI and hybrid circuitry makes this driver ultracompact and power efficient. Therefore, by
utilizing a DC power supply of 24V or 36V (as is common to solenoid valves, etc.), several units can
be connected to a simple programmable controller or personal computer with great economy of
wiring.
The RD-323MS is high resolution step motor driver featuring selectable microstep. The user can
select from 50, 64, or 80 microsteps/step using dip switches D1 to D5.
Also, the unique feature of this driver is its user selectable clockout for 1 to 80 pulses/step (1 to 80
pulses output per basic step angle).
２．Features
･High power (3A/Phase max.)
･Large supply voltage range (18 to 40VDC)
･Selectable microstep (50, 64, or 80 microsteps/step)
･Selectable clockout (1 to 80 pulses/step)
･Because of built-in oscillator, RD-323MS can combine with PLC, micro computer, etc. as well
as Rorze controller easily.
･Can change RPM by analog voltage of SPEED terminal
･Circuit protections to protect against overheating, over current and low supply voltage
･Auto. current down to reduce heat generation when motor is stationary

5. Current Adjustment
RD-323MS 3
５．Current Adjustment
Fig.2. Current Setting Trimmers
5-1 Run Current Adjustment Trimmer
Caution
Please use after adjusting the current within the motor rated current.
Exceeding the rated current causes the failure of motor or fire.
This is used to adjust the stepping motor drive current and in general it makes equal to the rated
current. (Setting at shipment is 0A.)
If a motor is used at a high rpm with a lower-than-rated torque, better efficiency and less
temperature rise can be obtained by using the motor with a current lower than the rated value.
(Note: As the current decreases, the torque will lower.)
The drive current changes relative to the dial. The value of the setting will be ±10 % of the set
value. (Use 1.5A setting when the motor rating is less than 1.5A. Set the amp. dip switchto 1.5A
side, because it makes current adjustment easier.)
Fig.3. Run Current Setting
5-2 Stop Current Adjustment Trimmer
This trimmer can adjust holding current when the motor is stationary. (Current after auto. current
down works.) You can set the stop current to any value between 0 and 80% of the run current by
adjusting Stop Current Adjustment Trimmer. (Setting at shipment is 50 %.)

6. Speed Setting

６．Speed Setting
☆Adjustment of Low/High Speed
Owing to the structure of the internal circuit, setting Low
Speed volume will affect the high speed change and vice
versa. Therefore, when setting oscillating frequency
please follow the below instructions.
1) Connect STOP/START terminal to GND potential.
2) Turn SPEED terminal to Low level and then set Low Speed volume to your desired minimum
frequency.
3) Turn SPEED terminal to High level and then set High Speed volume to your desired maximum
frequency.
4) Execute 2) again.
6-1 High Speed Trimmer
You can set the maximum setting of the rotation using this trimmer. The high setting can be set to
any value between 50k to 700kpps. The motor runs at maximum setting when the speed input is at
5V. Figure 6 shows one setting with 700kpps and another with 50kpps.
Fig.6. High Speed Setting
6-2 Low Speed Trimmer
You can set the low speed rotation using this trimmer. The setting will affect the high speed setting
by 14%. Speed input voltage ±0.7V

７．Grow Time Trimmer
Trimmer to adjust the duration of time in which the motor’s rpm changes from the stationary state to
the rpm set for High Speed and then to the rpm set for the Low Speed.
Adjustable range: 20msec. to 3sec. (When SPEED voltage is changed from 0 to 5Vdc or from 5 to
0Vdc.)
Fig.8 GROW TIME
８．Terminals
8-1 STOP/START (Input)
Turning STOP/START input to Low level (connecting to GND potential) will make the motor start to
run and the driver outputs CLOCK OUT signal to motor.
Turning STOP/START input to High level (open) will make the motor stop and the driver stops to
output CLOCK OUT signal.
8-2 CW/CCW (Input)
Turning CW/CCW to Low level (connecting to GND potential) will make the motor rotate in CCW
direction.
Turning CW/CCW to High level (open) will make the motor rotate in CW direction.
Fig.9 Direction of Rotation
8-3 SPEED (Input)
This input is used for changing speed. A voltage input between 0 to 5Vdc would change the speed
from low speed to high speed. The input is maintained at 5Vdc with a 4.7kΩpull-up resistor.
8-4 GND
Use GND along with SPEED input for remote speed control. As a good practice, use a shielded
wire. Refer to Fig. 10

8-5 GROW OUT (Output)
GROW OUT output is turned ON when the motor changes from a stationary state to the speed set
at High Speed trimmer. Therefore, by using the number of pulses from acceleration to GROW
OUT output duration, it is possible to calculate deceleration time.
This feature makes the driver control only by setting total pulse using RC-204A and RC-207A.
Fig.11 GROW OUT Output
8-6 CLOCK OUT (Output)
The CLOCK OUT is clock pulse output terminal.
You can select output pulse from among 1 to 80 pulses/step by using dip switches.
The duty of output clock pulse is approx. 40 to 60%.
Note: The excitation method of motor is any of 50, 64, or 80 microsteps/step.
8-7 ALARM (Output)
This terminal puts out a L signal when Overheating protection circuit is in operation.
(Open collector output is turned ON.)
